(Natural News) With coronavirus now confirmed in New York City and worldwide infections nearly at 10,000, the CDC has quarantined 195 Americans who lived in Wuhan, China and were evacuated on a private chartered flight.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), under statutory authority of the Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary, has issued federal quarantine orders to all 195 United States citizens who repatriated to the U.S. on January 29, 2020. The quarantine will last 14 days from when the plane left Wuhan, China.
The CDC is not wrong in issuing this order, since isolation is the only truly effective way to spread this highly infectious viral strain. However, it represents a sobering milestone, realizing that Americans can now be imprisoned against their will on U.S. soil, and that the severity of the outbreak has already reached the point where the CDC’s concern about the spread of the virus has resulted in the kind of quarantine order that hasn’t been used since the 1918 Spanish Flu outbreak.
Again, the CDC is not wrong to do this. In fact, they would have been dangerously wrong if they failed to do this. Given that these 195 Americans are straight out of Wuhan, holding them for 14 days is the prudent thing to do, especially when considering the fact that this coronavirus strain is documented to easily spread from symptomless carriers who don’t even know they have it.
But it is interesting to note that the federal government has demonstrated very little willingness to stop open borders migrants from carrying many other infectious diseases into the United States. Americans from China are sitting in quarantine right now, but illegal aliens from Honduras are walking right into the country, with no health testing or barriers whatsoever.
Here’s a breakdown of the currently known infections by region:
States have police power functions to protect the health, safety, and welfare of persons within their borders. To control the spread of disease within their borders, states have laws to enforce the use of isolation and quarantine.
Under 42 Code of Federal Regulations parts 70 and 71, CDC is authorized to detain, medically examine, and release persons arriving into the United States and traveling between states who are suspected of carrying these communicable diseases.
As part of its federal authority, CDC routinely monitors persons arriving at U.S. land border crossings and passengers and crew arriving at U.S. ports of entry for signs or symptoms of communicable diseases.
The key enforcement claim is found here:
If a quarantinable disease is suspected or identified, CDC may issue a federal isolation or quarantine order.
In other words, if the CDC merely believes you might be carrying an infectious disease, they can order you placed in quarantine.
Here’s the current wold map of infections, via the WHO:
Coronavirus has now made history in America: The first government quarantine of U.S. citizens in over a hundred years.
Sadly, most U.S. citizens remain completely oblivious to the truth about the coronavirus pandemic. Listen to my podcast below for full details:

About the author: Mike Adams (aka the “Health Ranger“) is a best selling author (#1 best selling science book on Amazon.com called “Food Forensics“), an environmental scientist, a patent holder for a cesium radioactive isotope elimination invention, a multiple award winner for outstanding journalism, a science news publisher and influential commentator on topics ranging from science and medicine to culture and politics. Follow his videos, podcasts, websites and science projects at the links below.
Mike Adams serves as the founding editor of NaturalNews.com and the lab science director of an internationally accredited (ISO 17025) analytical laboratory known as CWC Labs. There, he was awarded a Certificate of Excellence for achieving extremely high accuracy in the analysis of toxic elements in unknown water samples using ICP-MS instrumentation. Adams is also highly proficient in running liquid chromatography, ion chromatography and mass spectrometry time-of-flight analytical instrumentation. He has also achieved numerous laboratory breakthroughs in the programming of automated liquid handling robots for sample preparation and external standards prep.
The U.S. patent office has awarded Mike Adams patent NO. US 9526751 B2 for the invention of “Cesium Eliminator,” a lifesaving invention that removes up to 95% of radioactive cesium from the human digestive tract. Adams has pledged to donate full patent licensing rights to any state or national government that needs to manufacture the product to save human lives in the aftermath of a nuclear accident, disaster, act of war or act of terrorism. He has also stockpiled 10,000 kg of raw material to manufacture Cesium Eliminator in a Texas warehouse, and plans to donate the finished product to help save lives in Texas when the next nuclear event occurs. No independent scientist in the world has done more research on the removal of radioactive elements from the human digestive tract.
Adams is a person of color whose ancestors include Africans and American Indians. He is of Native American heritage, which he credits as inspiring his “Health Ranger” passion for protecting life and nature against the destruction caused by chemicals, heavy metals and other forms of pollution.
Adams is the author of the world’s first book that published ICP-MS heavy metals analysis results for foods, dietary supplements, pet food, spices and fast food. The book is entitled Food Forensics and is published by BenBella Books.
In addition to his lab work, Adams is also the (non-paid) executive director of the non-profit Consumer Wellness Center (CWC), an organization that redirects 100% of its donations receipts to grant programs that teach children and women how to grow their own food or vastly improve their nutrition. Through the non-profit CWC, Adams also launched Nutrition Rescue, a program that donates essential vitamins to people in need. Click here to see some of the CWC success stories.
With a background in science and software technology, Adams is the original founder of the email newsletter technology company known as Arial Software. Using his technical experience combined with his love for natural health, Adams developed and deployed the content management system currently driving NaturalNews.com. He also engineered the high-level statistical algorithms that power SCIENCE.naturalnews.com, a massive research resource featuring over 10 million scientific studies.
